Description

Organic Hard Turkey Red Wheat is ancient wheat brought to the US in 1870 by Russian Mennonite settlers.

It is grown on an Amish certified organic family farm that has been growing and serving the Ohio Amish community for over six decades.

Hard Red Wheat Berry is whole unprocessed wheat kernels which are rich in essential vitamins and provide a long list of health benefits. Studies show consuming whole grains can help lower the risk of heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.

Studies also show using whole grains can provide the body with weight control.

Wheat berries do contain gluten, so they're not suitable for people with celiac disease.

Check out our organic spelt grains which may provide a possible alternative to wheat berries.

Many only think of red wheat as being the more popular hard red. We also carry soft wheat in either red or white. The Soft wheat provides more carbohydrates and less gluten-forming protein. While the hard red winter wheat provides protein to develop the gluten needed for making yeast bread. Soft wheat is better suited for cakes and pastries. Be sure to check out all of our wheat berry offerings.

Organic red wheat is sold in 25lb bags.

About Stutzman Farms

Cottage Craft Works is proud to provide such a high-quality supply of bulk organic foods. These foods are processed on an Amish family ran farm that has been growing all organic for over six decades.

If you're looking for a high quality certified organically grown grains to mill yourself or to purchase milled flours then you have found the place to purchase them in bulk.

Stutzman Family Farms has grown organic grains in the Ohio rolling hills of Holmes County for over 60 years. Long before organic certification ever existed the Stutzman family has practiced organic soil management to obtain rich fertile soil and high-quality grains throughout their Amish heritage.

Food processing from the organic grains is completed on the Stutzman Farms. These facilities are routinely inspected by the Ohio Department of Agriculture.

All grains and grain products processed on the Stutzman Farms are organically grown.

Stutzman Farms specializes in growing and harvesting Spelt, Wheat, Oats, Rye, and Corn on Ohio Amish Farms using the old time planting and harvesting methods.

Grains such as Amaranth, Barley, Long Grain Brown Rice, Buckwheat, and Golden Flax Seed may not adapt well to the Ohio climate. In this case, these grains may be grown in limited supply or supplemented by other organic growers from across the United States. These organic growers may consist of other Amish organic farmers as well as Non-Amish traditional organic farmers.

Grains are stored and processed right on the farm. Each order is hand filled right from the farm storage facilities.

Despite their Amish back-to-basics heritage, the Stutzman family keeps up with the modern needs of health consciences eaters. They now offer sprouted grain products and keep improving their processing and machinery to provide the highest quality products available in any health food store.

Orders are still processed the old fashion way and shipped directly from the Amish farm in Ohio. Please allow a few extra days for your order to arrive.

Because the Amish farm is not computerized we do not have electronic tracking to automatically update your order status from processing to ship. Orders are shipped using the old style UPS book. Manual tracking numbers are kept at the farm should we ever need to trace a package.

For this reason and in order to keep our overall prices low for now, we have to limit 50lbs two each 25lb bags per each order. We are sorry for this inconvenience as we have researched all other alternatives and will continue to do so.

While eating whole grains and grain products are generally recommended by health care professionals for all the known health and nutrition benefits, some people may develop adverse reactions leading to serious and life-threatening allergic reactions or complications within the digestive system or bowel track.

People who are new to whole grains or a specific new grain product should complete their own research to learn more on how it is digested, the health benefits and risk in order to make an informed purchasing decision.

Even then new grains and products should be used in small amounts until the person can see how they will tolerate the product.

People with already known digestive track and bowel complications should consult a physician before embarking on a new whole grain enriched diet. Some of the products made from whole grains are water insoluble and may bulk up and block an already partially obstructed bowel.

I have been searching for an Ancient Wheat for a long time when I finally found it here at Cottage Craftworks. I ordered 50 pounds since we make all of our own bread. I couldn't be more pleased with the wheat and the flavor. It is nice clean wheat and makes an excellent loaf of bread! On a scale of bad to good I had to rate good as it was the highest level but this stuff deserves a Super Duper Excellent! Thanks Cottage CraftWorks for carrying this wheat!
